Abstract

The importance of creativity in the apparel field is undeniable; yet, there is virtually no quick and reliable assessment available for use in educational setting (Karpova, Marcketti, & Barker, 2011). Amabile’s (1983, 1996) Consensual Assessment Technique has been the foundation for numerous research studies and theory development. However, the assessment is not easily adaptable for classroom use. The purpose of this project was to examine the use of a single item CAT by using a sample of faculty and students across two universities.
